I am hoping that someone has practical experience with this.

It has been stated by a few people that they had problems sealing the counterlungs after adding connections- basically elbows or breathing hoses.

I am curious what people have used to seals the connections with the counterlung?
Gaskets, glues, p-ports, bulkhead fittings…

Thanks, Andrew


I've used P Ports with GREAT success, and have made straight plug-ins, used Ray elbows, and have made plug-in Tees for dual hoses (think OTS counterlung fabrication). They work great. Use a dab of Aquaseal (there's another name for this stuff in Europe, someone fill it in please?) and they stay sealed to the lung perfectly. Not sure why anyone would use anything else.

And when your fingers find her, she drowns you in her body, Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind......
